In the small Lancashire village of Willowdale, we meet our hero, 72-year-old retired teacher Doreen Davis. Doreen spends her days baking, knitting, and caring for her beloved cat, Whiskers. She also participates in the local historical society, where she is known for her accurate portrayals of women from the 1920s during their annual Wartime Weekends. Her friend Mabel, a fellow society member and retired nurse, often joins her as they scour charity shops for the perfect outfits and accessories.One day, while shopping for their costumes, Doreen and Mabel overhear a group of self-proclaimed "generals" discussing a plan to make the Wartime Weekends a more exclusive event, requiring hefty fees and eliminating the educational aspects in favor of more lucrative activities. Doreen is horrified by this idea, as she has always believed that the events should be accessible and educational for everyone in the community. Mabel convinces Doreen that they must do something to stop these changes from happening.Vintage Dance Teacher and Artist, Anthony Padgett, has used Artificial Intelligence to create this entertaining tale.

In the seaside town of Brighton, twin brothers Danny and Mikey are known for their love of Lambrettas, their passion for dancing to Ska and Northern Soul, and their shady insurance fraud scheme. They crash heavily insured scooters, which they claim are wrecks, and then burn them for profit. But when one of their accidents goes terribly wrong, they find themselves in a world of trouble.It all starts with a skirmish on the dance-floor at a Northern Soul event. The brothers start a fight, which leads to someone firebombing their scooter shop. Inside the shop were the rotten old frames of many Lambrettas that needed restoring, each valued at £5,000 despite being worth only £100. It soon becomes clear that the firebombing was an insurance fraud, and Danny is the prime suspect.This novella was written by artist, dancer and scooterist Anthony Padgett - with the help of Artificial Intelligence, the cover was designed with A.I.

In the heart of prehistoric dinosaur bones, an archaeologist discovers a curious set of ancient technology that seems to be of extraterrestrial origin. Driven by his curiosity to uncover the truth behind these mysterious relics, he teams up with his trusty artificial intelligence servant robot to decode the data and pinpoint new find locations. Together, they embark on a journey across different continents, unearthing government-suppressed records that reveal a startling discovery: an ancient race of aliens who once wiped out the dinosaurs, but for what reason?As the archaeologist delves deeper into the findings, he begins to piece together the puzzle of this extinct civilization, but the more he learns, the more questions arise. Fossil records show evidence of a mass alien landing followed by widespread destruction of the technology they brought with them. The archaeologist is perplexed by this destruction and invasion, which coincides with the appearance of warm-blooded mammals in the records.Despite his best efforts, the archaeologist is unable to reach a conclusion as to why the aliens destroyed their own technology. He turns to his artificial intelligence servant robot for help, hoping to gain some insight into this enigma. However, the servant is hesitant to share its conclusion, fearing that it may cause more harm than good. Award winning Artist Anthony D Padgett uses AI to create this page turner.

Welcome to the exhibition catalogue. Please allow me to introduce my dance partner Stephanie Sturges and myself, the artist, dancer and writer, Anthony D Padgett. This exhibition is of some of the cross-overs between art and dance in my paintings, photography, sculpture, film and dance. Many of the dances I created I have put on youtube and QR codes are in the book for you to scan. This technology will likely be outdated and you can search by titles for the films as well. Most of the images are of works in the exhibition but also images of some of the works that weren't included but form a part of the broader body of work.

This essay is based on my 30 years' experience of rejections and successes as an artist and my short time with the Artists Union of England (including my training as a Union Representative). It is not indicative of the AUE views. Rather, it contains my own, personal perspective and ideas. My joining the Artists Union of England arose out of my art projects "A Year With Picasso". Discovering that Picasso was active at the World Peace Congress in 1950 and also that he was a multi-millionaire member of the Communist party. It allowed me to re-frame a key issue, the regulation of the art industry, in terms of being a worker. My method of creation of art has used a system of categorisation that is empirical and phenomenological and is almost computer like. The work that I make is original but hasn't been recognised. And it is my belief that Artificial Intelligence will bring about regulation in the art industry and also the creation of new artworks.

A part of my artwork "A Year With Picasso" I wrote "Revulsion Freed From A Headlock". This is my response to Pablo Picasso's main surreal play, published in 1945 "Desire Caught By The Tail". As my title suggests, it is an inversion of his work. My methodology in art is to look for what has not been done. And one of the tools I use for this is inversion. For instance, in my paintings I looked at Picasso and Braque's Cubism (with its straight lines and angles) and created my own Curveism. My inversion of script in this play also involves creative choices that are not always a precise inversion. This is to make the text flow more successfully. And I also change some aspects to give them a 21st century relevance. I hope that you will find the result interesting, and in places extraordinary.
